초록 ▼

An efficient, cost-saving system and method of designing, installing, testing, and monitoring a secondary containment system for new and existing Above Ground Storage Tanks (ASTs) that is comprised of a protective steel membrane for the floor of the tank, including the floor-to-wall juncture, and the lower portion of the tank shell such that the steel membrane creates one or more interstitial zones between the steel membrane and the tank shell. The steel membrane may be installed zone by zone such that the secondary containment system can encapsulate existing tank features by molding itself around the existing contours, such as repair plates, corners, sumps, etc. Furthermore, a unique testing method using a simple electronic device is provided for on-site testing of the integrity of the weld seams that may be efficiently used after each zone is installed without requiring that the entire tank be evacuated during the construction of other zones.

1. A secondary containment system for a fluid containment structure, comprising: a primary surface having a horizontal floor portion and a vertical wall portion;a secondary surface positioned on top of the primary surface, the secondary surface comprised of a plurality of horizontal plates that are sealingly attached directly to each other such that there exists an interstitial space between the primary and secondary surfaces; anda plurality of vertical members that sealingly attach the plurality of horizontal plates of the secondary surface to the vertical wall portion of the primary surface. 2. The secondary containment system of claim 1 wherein the interstitial space is divided into one or more sealed zones by overlapping one or more of the plates. 3. The secondary containment system of claim 1 wherein the plurality of vertical members are rolled at the joint between the horizontal floor portion and a vertical wall portion of the primary surface such that a vertical expansion members and the joint are not in direct contact. 4. The secondary containment system of claim 1 wherein the plurality of plates are comprised of steel. 5. The secondary containment system of claim 4 wherein the plurality of plates are sealingly attached to the primary surface by one or more seal welds. 6. The secondary containment system of claim 1 wherein the plurality of vertical members are sealingly attached to the vertical wall portion of the primary surface at a height greater than a critical height of the primary surface. 7. The secondary containment system of claim 6 wherein the critical height of the primary surface is derived from a mathematical algorithm that is based upon the dimensions and the combined stresses of the primary surface. 8. The secondary containment system of claim 6 wherein the critical height of the primary surface is derived from a mathematical algorithm that is based upon the dimensions and the combined stresses of the primary surface. 9. The secondary containment system of claim 1 further comprising a means for detecting a leak in the interstitial space. 10. The secondary containment system of claim 9 wherein the means for detecting a leak in the interstitial space is comprised of maintaining a continuous and sufficient negative pressure in the interstitial space. 11. The secondary containment system of claim 10 wherein the means for detecting a leak in the interstitial space is comprised of a discrete sensor that is positioned proximate a low point of the primary surface. 12. The secondary containment system of claim 11 wherein the sensor is a hydrocarbon liquid or gas sensor. 13. A secondary containment system for a fluid containment structure, comprising: a primary surface having a horizontal floor portion and a vertical wall portion;a secondary surface comprised of a plurality of steel plates that are welded directly to the horizontal floor portion of the primary surface such that there exists an interstitial space between the primary and secondary surfaces;wherein one or more of the plurality of plates overlap thereby dividing the interstitial space into one or more sealed zones;a means of detecting a leak in the interstitial space;a plurality of vertical members that sealingly attach the plurality of plates of the secondary surface to the vertical wall portion of the primary surface at a height greater than a critical height of the primary surface. 14. The secondary containment system of claim 13 wherein the critical height of the primary surface is derived from a mathematical algorithm that is based upon the dimensions and the combined stresses of the primary surface. 15. The secondary containment system of claim 13 wherein the plurality of vertical members are rolled at the joint between the horizontal floor portion and a vertical wall portion of the primary surface such that the vertical expansion members and the joint are not in direct contact. 16. The secondary containment system of claim 13 wherein the means for detecting a leak in the interstitial space is comprised of maintaining a continuous and sufficient negative pressure in the interstitial space. 17. The secondary containment system of claim 13 wherein the means for detecting a leak in the interstitial space is comprised of a discrete hydrocarbon liquid or gas sensor that is positioned proximate a sump of the primary surface. 18. A secondary containment system for a fluid containment structure, comprising: a primary surface having a horizontal floor portion and a vertical wall portion;a secondary surface positioned on top of the primary surface, the secondary surface comprised of a plurality of horizontal steel plates that are sealingly attached directly to each other such that there exists an interstitial space between the primary and secondary surfaces;a seal weld between the primary surface and the horizontal plates such that the seal weld defines a discrete zone; anda plurality of steel vertical members that sealingly attach the plurality of horizontal plates of the secondary surface to the vertical wall portion of the primary surface. 19. The secondary containment system of claim 18 wherein the interstitial space is divided into one or more sealed zones by seal welding between the primary and secondary surfaces. 20. The secondary containment system of claim 18 wherein the plurality of vertical members are sealingly attached to the vertical wall portion of the primary surface at a height greater than critical height of the primary surface.
